HC Deb 04 March 1931 vol 249 c390
52. Sir A. KNOX

asked the Secretary of State for India, having regard to the recent speech by the commander-in-chief in India, whether the Government intends to carryout the suggestions of the No. VII Committee of the Round-Table Conference without the sanction of Parliament, in view of the fact that all suggestions at the Conference are admittedly subject to reconsideration?

Mr. BENN

I have already stated that I will take every means of informing the House of any administrative action on which the Government may decide; but obviously action cannot be deferred in every instance, particularly where it relates to problems of current administration which would have had to be decided in any case.
